* Cynthiana News, Feb. 25, 1869 - “Cynthiana and White Oak Pike. We have been informed that money enough has been subscribed to build the pike from the church to the first gate at the fair grounds and that an effort is now being made to have it finished to the town. Let us have it by all means- and then let us have the bridge at the foot of Pleasant Street.”

By Morgan Bretland, FFA reporter
I think our county would be proud of how well we did at the Kentucky state fair.
Our very own Harrison County FFA members worked very hard on their entries of tobacco, hay, flowers and corn. When FFA took a field trip to Louisville on Thursday, Aug. 15, we were pleased to find out that almost all of our exhibitors received a ribbon of some kind whether it be the Danish system in all floral arrangement classes or placing in hay and tobacco.
